Aunt_Acid Posted October 9, 2004 Report Posted October 9, 2004 Too bad KISS doesn't get any respect around here Too bad they don't deserve any.
_jr_ Posted October 9, 2004 Report Posted October 9, 2004 This from a guy who can't decide what his name is. Chris, Ron, Dave, and now Roger.
bazooka Posted October 9, 2004 Report Posted October 9, 2004 bazooka, here's a Bo Diddley just for you Thanks bluesboy! I was in high school and college in the San Francisco Bay Area during the late 60s and early 70s, and went to many shows at those venues [Avalon Ballroom, (original) Fillmore Auditorium, Fillmore West, Winterland ]. The early Quicksilver (Messenger Service) is one of my all-time favorites. I've never seen Bo Diddley live, though, unfortunately.
bazooka Posted October 9, 2004 Report Posted October 9, 2004 Big Brother & The Holding Company brought Janis Joplin into the spotlight. The Miller Blues Band evolved into The Steve Miller Band.
bazooka Posted October 9, 2004 Report Posted October 9, 2004 " From England ": early US appearance for Pink Floyd.
Aunt_Acid Posted October 9, 2004 Report Posted October 9, 2004 The early Pink Floyd was good. I have an UmmaGumma poster haging on the wall in my bedroom. Another one I have that I can't find a picture of is the Chicago poster from VIII, where they are all piled into a woody station wagon and there is a policeman beside them.

XXX Posted October 9, 2004 Report Posted October 9, 2004 This is a reprint that I've had my eye on for a couple of days. I just don't have the cashflow at the moment to give myself the luxury of owning this fine piece of music trash: I might buy it on impulse later on
bazooka Posted October 10, 2004 Report Posted October 10, 2004 I remember this John Mayall show (also Mother Earth, and the New York Rock And Roll Ensemble). Mayall and Jon Mark & Johnny Almond played stuff from the "Turning Point" album, before it was released. And we talked to Mayall outside after the show (Well, actually, my friend said "Great Show!" to him, and Mayall replied "Thank you" before he got into a neat old limo).
Elvish Posted October 10, 2004 Report Posted October 10, 2004 Bluesboy, those are some awesome Dead posters. They do have some intricate and beautiful designs - wish I could wallpaper my room with them! I have these two; the first is a blacklight poster. These two I just wish i had! :: I have that last design on a t-shirt.
Aunt_Acid Posted October 10, 2004 Report Posted October 10, 2004 Grateful Dead has some of the coolest cover art.
bazooka Posted October 10, 2004 Report Posted October 10, 2004 Fillmore East 1968 My son was given this poster after party-ers left it behind at his grandma's vacation rental.
bazooka Posted October 10, 2004 Report Posted October 10, 2004 The poster is not exactly a work of art, but a pretty solid "Caravan of Stars". Bo Diddley should have top billing.
